• Experience modernizing legacy or monolithic integrations into service-oriented or microservices-based architectures.
• Ability to work effectively in a highly collaborative engineering environment with direct ownership of delivery outcomes.

• Experience with HashiCorp tooling, especially Consul, Nomad, and Vault, or adjacent platforms.
• Experience with AWS-native services and infrastructure automation.
